To all 'whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, LEwIs R. HEIM, va. citizen of the United States, and a resident ofDanbury, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented an Improvement in Roll-Grinding Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to apparatus for the grinding of rolls and the like. One of the objects thereof is to provide a practical and compact apparatus for grinding rolls and like articles in which facility of adjustment and variability of action of the various parts thereof are combined with durability and compactnes's of construction. Another object is to provide apparatus of the above nature in which positive and accurate action upon the articles operated upon is assured.

Other objects will be in part obvious or in part pointed out hereinafter.

The invention accordingl consists in 4'features ofconstruction, com 'mations of elements and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described and the scope of the a plica- Y tion of which will be indicated in the ol1ow v'4t- 4; of Fig. 2, certain of the parts being in elevation. l

Similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views of the drawings.

Referring now to the drawings and particularly to Figs. 1 and 2, there is shown a main or supporting frame 10 on one end of which there is rigidly secured a bearing frame or carriage 11. The main frame 10 is Serial No. 476,689.

provided with three upwardly extending abutments preferably formed integrall)v therewith and disposed one on each side of the frame and the third disposed centrallyv of the remaining two. These abutments, shown in front elevation at 12 in Fig. 1. support t-he bearing frame 11 which is rigidly secured thereto as by means of the bolts 13.

By this construction there are provided two openings or spaces between the bearing frame 11 and the upper surface of the main Vframe 10 for a purpose to be hereinafter described. The bearing frame 11 has mounted upon it two bearings 14 and 15 in which is rotatably ysupported a shaft 16 on one end of which is suitably secured an abrasive wheel 17 which will hereinafter be referred to as the grinding wheel. Upon the other end of the shaft 16 is mounted a driving pulley 18 adapted to be driven from the pulley 19 of a suitable. variable speed electric motor 20 suitably mounted upon the interior of a side member of the main frame 10 so that the motor may be bodily moved in a vertical plane with respect to the grinding wheel driving pulley 18 to compensate for stretching and for properly tensioning the belt 21 connected thereto. Any suitable means may be provided for so adjusting the position of the motor. The motor 20 is thus substantially entirely encased within the frame 10 and is in a position to form no obstruction.

There is thus provided a rigid mounting for the grinding wheel 17 `and itY will be noted that the driving connection of the pulley 18 is so related to the grinding wheel 17 that the effect of the weight of the grinding wheel in overhanging the bearing supports of the shaft 16 is compensated for by the downward dri pull of the belt 21 acting upon the opposite end of the hearing supports. The upper portion of the'main frame 10 is provided `with suitable bearing surfaces 22 and 23 extending longitudinally thereof, the former being preferably in the form of a V-shaped way supported upon the main frame 10 and bearing upon the surfaces 23 and 23 is a movable carriage 24 having on its under side suitable bearing surfaces to cooperate with the bearing surfaces 22 and 23. The movable carriage 24 is thus provided with al guide 25 resting in the way 22 for guiding the carriage 24 and for maintaining it in proper alignment throughout the range of movement which it may be given. The V-shaped way 22 and the bearing surface 23 in the main frame 10 extend longitudinally of the frame and underneath the rigidly mounted bearing frame 11 and between the supporting abutments 12 therefor hereinbefore described. The carriage 24 has an extension or leg 26 throughout the extent of which the guide 25 is extended and is provided also with a corresponding extension or leg 27 whose bearing surface cooperates with the bearing surface 23L on the main frame 10. The legs 26 and 27 extend longitudinally of the main frame to an extent suiiicient to insure the proper guiding of the carriage 24 throughout its movement and to insure also the proper distribution of the load on the carriage 24 to the main frame 10. The bearing frame 11 in being mounted upon the abutments 12 is thus raised above the bearing surfaces in the main frame 10 to a sufficient extent to permit the legs 26 and 27 to extend and travel underneath the frame member 11.

The latter and the movable carriage 24 may thus be said to bear a telescopic relation to one another.

The movable carriage-24 carries suitable bearings 28and 29 in which is mounted the shaft 30 of an abrasive wheel 31, hereinafter termed the regulating wheel, mounted at one end thereof and overhanging carriage 24 and the main frame .10 so as to be in operative relation to the grinding wheel 17. A pulley 32 mounted upon the opposite end of the shaft 30 is adapted to be driven from the pulley 33 of a variable speed driving motor 34 mounted upon the interior of a side member of the main frame 10 in any suitable manner to permit its adjustment vertically with respect to the shaft 30 to permit proper adjustment of thetension of the belt 35. The motor 34 is thus also entirely encased within the main frame 10 and, like the driving motor 20, necessitates no additional ioor space.\ Speed varying devices for motors 20 and 34 are indicated at 2()u and 34a.

Turning now to the means for moving and adjusting the regulating wheel carriage 24, and referring particularly to Figs. 1 and 3 of the drawings, it will be seen that I provide an operating screw 36 rotatably mounted in a bracket 37 rigidly .secured to the main frame and held against longitudinal movement by means of a collar 38' mounted upon one side of the bearing bracket 37 and by means of the operating hand wheel 39, mounted upon the other side of the bearing bracket 37. The threaded portion of the adjusting member 36 is in threaded engagement with a bushing 40 suitably secured to and preferably threaded into the movable carriage 24. The latter is cored out, as at 41, to accommodate the free end of the adjusting screw 36 throughout the range of movement of the carriage 24. As will be seen from Fig. 3, I prefer to position the V-shaped guiding member 25 and the cooperating way 22 in the main frame adjacent the regulating wheel 31 so as to provide a positive guiding of the regulating wheel throughout its range of movement with the carriage 24. It will also be noted that I prefer to position the adjusting or operating screw 36 similarly with respect to the regulating wheel 31 and that the adjusting Screw 36 may engage the bushing 40 conveniently positioned in the V-shaped guiding member 25 so that the adjusting screw 36 may operate upon the carriage 24 in close proximity tothe regulating wheel 31 to insure a positive movement or adjustment thereof.

Considering now the means for supporting the rolls or work adapted to be operated upon by the abrasive wheels 17 and 31, it will be seen, having reference particularly to Fig. 4, that the movable carriage 24 is provided with an extension or overhang 42 extending laterally between the two abrasive wheels and formed preferably integrally with the movable carriage 24. The extension 42 is supported adjacent its outer end by means of a bearing member 43 adjustably mounted as by means of the cap screw 44 to a laterally extending bracket 45 suitably secured to the main frame 10, as by means of the cap screws 46. The overhang 42 is thus made movable with the carriage 24 and is supported at its exterior end to insurerigidity of construction during the operation and throughout its range of movement with the carriage.

As will be seen in Figs. 1 and 4, the extensin 42 is suitably recessed at its outermost end as at 47, the recess 47 being thus open at the extreme end of the overhang 42. forming the lateral boundaries of the recess 47 is an adjusting screw 48 having a hand wheel 49 mounted upon its exterior end and having rigidly mounted at its interior end two suitably spaced collars 50 -and 51, the parts being so arranged that the entire screw 48 with its colla-rs 50 and 51 partalces of an axial movement when manipulated by means of the hand wheel 49.

The overhang 42 extending between the two abrasive wheels is adapted to support a carrier frame 52 having a downwardly extending plate 53 at its outer end adapted to cooperate with a downwardly extending plate 54 integrally formed with the over- Threaded into one `of the abutments hang 42 at its outer end for purposes of properly aligning and locking the carrier frame 52 with respect to one of the wheels. 'the carrier frame 52 has a pair of inwardly extending lugs 55 adapted to enter the recess 47 and adapted also to straddle the adjusting screw 48 between the collars 50 and 51 thereon. Thus, adjusting of the screw 48 by means of the hand wheel 49 will cause axial movement of the screw and the collars and will carry the carrier frame 52 throughout such range of-movement. The carrier frame 52 may be locked to the overhang 42 when in its adjusted position by means of the cap screw 56 extending through a suitable slot 57 in the downwardly extending plate 53 and threaded into the extension 54 of the overhang 42. I

The carrier frame 52 is provided with a pair of upwardly extending posts 58 and 59 suiliciently spaced apart so as to permit access of the abrasive wheels therebetween. The posts 58 and 59 support, as by means of the bolts 60, a work carrier61 adapted to support the rolls or articles intended to be operated upon by the wheels and indicated as at 62. The work carrier 61 is of slightly le thickness than the diameter of the articles 62 so that the wheels 17 and 31 may operate upon the art supported upon the carrier 6l interm iate the supporting posts 58 and 59 in amanner to be hereinafter described.

In order to guide the` rolls 62 on the carrier 61 and into engagement with the abrasive wheels, suitable guiding plates 63 are secured to each side of the carrier'61 and may conveniently be secured by means of the clamping bolts 60, as is indicated in Fig. 1. Similar guiding plates indicated at 64 in Fig. 2 may be similarly positioned with respect to a supporting post 59'to guide the rolls 62 as they leave the abrasive wheels and into a suitable trough 65 suitably secured to the carriage 24 as at 65.

Considering now the action of the abrasive wheels upon the parts intended to be ground, it will be seen in Fig. 3 that I prefer to give the axes of the two abrasive wheels 17 and 31 a fixed Ainclination with respect to one another. In Fig. 1 the axis of the regulating Wheel 31 mounted upon the movable carriage 24 is inclined to a slight degree with respect to the axis ofy the grinding wheel 17 which is substantiallyY horizontal. Assuming that the carrier 61, Fig. 4, is substantially horizontal and that therefore the path of travelof rolls 62 is similarly horizontal, there will be a relative inclination between the path of travel of the rolls 62 with respect to the path of the operating surface of the regulating wheel 31 so that the parts are positively fed along the carrier 61 by reason v,of the action of the regulating wheel 31.' It will be understood that the grinding wheel 17 is rotated at a relatively high speed and that its action upon the rolls 62 on the carrier 61 is in a downward direction, whereas the regulating wheel 31 is rotated at a relatively low speed and in such a direction that its action upon the rolls 62 is in an upward direction. The regulating wheel thus determines the rate of rotation 4of the parts on the carrier during the grind- 'to give the desired rate of rotation of the parts during the grinding action and also to vary the rate of feed of the parts during such action.

As seen in Fig. 4, the bolts which secure i the `carrier 61 tothe supporting posts 58 and 59 cooperate with the latter in suitable slots 66 whereby the carrier 61 may be 'ven' any desired degree of inclination wit respect to the path of the operative surface of the regulating wheel 31 which, as before noted, is substantially fixed. The rate of feed of the parts or rolls 62 mav thus be further varied by changing the inclination of the carrier 61 at will. It will be understood that the various adjustments are made' with respect to one another in accordance with the character of the work operated upon and the material thereof, and it will be noted further that a high degree of flexibility of adjustment is attained to meet various requirements and that the several parts are readily adjusted for most etlicient and accurate action. l

' The parts, after being operated ..pon by the abrasive wheels, are discharged from the carrier 61 into the trough 65 secured by,

meansof the standard and the cap screws 65* to the carriage 24, the trough 65 being of sufficient lateral extent so as to be in `proper relation to the carrier 61 throughout the lateral adjustments of the ca rrier 61 relative to the carriage 24 as hereinbefore described. The parts are thereupon discharged from the trough 65 into a discharge-chute 67 rigidly secured to the depressed substantially central portion ofl the main. frame, as by means of the cap screws 68, and slopingin a forward direction toward the front of the machine where the chute 67 extends through a suitable opening 70 in the main frame 10 positioned immediately above the tank 71 detachably secured to the front of the frame 10. The chute 67 is of sulicient cross-section l and the main frame 10' is provided with an opening of correspondingly suicient extent (as indicated in Fig. 2) so that the trough (35 will be in operative relation to the chute (S7 throughout the extent of the adjustments that may be given the carriage 2-1 and hence the trough (35, as hereinbefore described. The parts are thus discharged into the container 71 in which is preferably placed a suitable liquid for cushioning the drop of the parts as they fall into the tank.

The grinding Wheel 17 and thc regulating vvheel 31 are enclosedin a suitable casing 72 suitably secured to the main frame 1() and in lixed relation with respect to the axis of the grinding wheel 17. iis viewed in Fig. 1, it will be noted that the right-hand end of the casing 72, which end houses the regulating wheel 31, is made sutiiciently large to permit the movement of the regulating wheel to take place within the casing throughout the desi red range of adjustment. A suitable slot is provided 4through which the shaft of the regulating ivheel extends to permit such range of movement to take place. Similarly, a suitable opening in the rear wall ot' the casing 72 is provided to accommodate the extension or overhang 42 together with the carrier frame "i2 mountedr thereon, and this opening is furthermore of sntlicient extent to permit relative adjustnient of the carrier frame 52 to take place with respect to the overhang 42. The front of the casing 72 is provided with suitable cover plates one for each wheel, there being only one shovvn in Fig. 1, the construction of the cover plate for the regulating ivheel 31 being substantially identical. It will be seen that the cover plate 73 partially broken away in Fig. 1 is detachably secured to the casing 72 bv means of a fixed latch 7-1 and a movablevor detachable latch 75 of any suitable construction. Adjacent the carrier frame 52 the cover plate 73 is provided with an adjustable plate 76 slidably mounted on the cover plate 73 and adjustable with respect thereto by means of the slots 77 and the thumb screws 7S. The sliding plate 7G may be positioned close to the carrier after proper adjustment of the latter with respect to the Wheel so that the several parts are substantially entirely encased. .A suitable pipe 79 connects the casing 72 with the tank 71 and a suitable pump (not shown) may be provided for circulating a cooling liquid from the pump to the operative surfaces of the abrasive Wheels during their operation.

During operation upon rolls or parts of special design, and particularly of such parts having non-uniformly dlstributed e5;- terior surfaces, the parts or rolls have a tendencv to leave the carrier G1 during operation `thereupon by the wheels and this action is generally manifesed by a tendency for the parts to stand on end. Referring to Figs. 1 and 4, I have provided an adjustable bar 80 positioned immediately above the carrier 61 so as to restrict the travel of the parts or rolls 62 to the desired path. The bar S0 is secured at each end to an adjustable mounting member 81 conveniently secured to the casing 72 as by means of the cap screws S2 cooperatingin the slots 83 in the supporting members 81. The height of the bar SO `above, the carrier 61 may thus be readily adjusted to conform to the diameter of the parts operated upon and furthermore it will be noted that each end of the bar 80 is independently adjustable so that the restricting bar 8() may be given any inclination to place it in substantial parallelism with the supporting surface of the Work carrier 61.

'l`he bar 8O may be formed to expose any desired extent of surface. of contact to the parts operated upon and this surface of contact may, if desired, be curved to conform subslantially to the curvature of the parts intended to be restricted to the desired path of travel. Furthermore, the adjustable mounting of the restricting bar 80 is such that the latter' may-be moved laterally about the supporting screws 82 as a pivot to conform to whatever relative adjustment of the carrier 61 is made with respect to the abrasive wheels.

1t will be noted that the regulating wheel 31 is readily adjustable with respect to' the grinding wheel 17 so that adjustment may readily be made for operation upon the parts of various diameters and also for taking up the vvear of the wheels during operation upon parts of a given diameter. The Wear on the grinding Wheel 17 during thev operation is materially greater than the Wear on the regulating wheel 31 and it will be seen that proper adjustment of the carrier 61 with respect to the regulating Wheel 31 having once been made, the adjustment of both these parts with respect to the 4grinding wheel to compensate for Wear is made possible in an extremely simple manner. It will further be noted that there has been provided in this l invention apparatus of greatcompac'tness of construction as Well as of great flexibility of adjustment and operation and that the various objects, as Well as others, together with many advantages have been achieved.

As many possible embodiments may be made of the above invention and as many changes may be made in the embodiment above set forth. it will be understood that the matter hereinbef'ore set forth is to be interpreted in an illustrative sense and not in a limited sense. i
